so it's near the end of 2nd day of my internship @ tembusu, and strangely enough i dont feel the usual eagerness to pack up and get out of office as soon as the clock strikes 6
maybe its the OT-culture that has implanted slight guilt in me as i waved goodbye to colleagues still buried deep in work
maybe it's the fact that there's reso pracs almost everyday after work, diminishing the excitement i usually feel at the end of work
its a little too early to say, but i'd like to think that im not that anxious to bail because i like it here
not so much for the office politics and workload but my colleagues, who've made time pass alot faster each day
also, although this is a short internship, i feel like im actually learning, instead of hunched over the computer typing ctrl-v repeatedly, trying to master data-entry efficiency
work, however, has a high opportunity cost, extinguishing zirca plans this wed entirely
in its redemption, i finally went to butterfactory last week, and it was just as good as i was told
we had free flow drinks till 1am that were alot better than any housepours i've had
the really mainstream music helped alot too
i also managed to watch terminator salvation over the weekend! (:
it was, in all honesty, a little stupid, aside from its special effects and action moves
i've never watched the previous terminators either so i didnt manage to catch the inferences made to the last few movies, while the boys nodded or pointed it out
but i did find really amusing the recurring biblical allusions made in the movie, like how john connor shares the same initials as jesus christ, being the legendary savior and all, or *spoiler alert* how he seemingly 'resurrects' after being stabbed in the heart because a halfman-halfrobot gave up his heart for john connor.

in the days preceding work, we had another wii midnight party at mac's place with victor and melvin, another time where boys show off their prowess at games, while i struggled to survive the game
so while the guys were hooting and throwing fists into the air to celebrate wins (which they took turns to attain), i divided their scores by about 4 and realized that it was my score
i was really consistent in my performance at that, the only time i'm ever consistent
the late night timing did not make it any better. OHWELL.
verbal diarrhea, end.
